Characterization of Continuity and Convergence of Fredholm Operators Perturbed by Orthogonal Idempotents in Banach Spaces
(JOOUST, 2021)Fredholm operators have been studied by several researchers for decades whereby they developed a comprehensive theory for integral equations and integral operators. A lot of properties of Fredholm operators have been given ... -
Mathematical Modeling of 2d Heterogeneous Motor Vehicle Traffic Flow System
(JOOUST, 2021)Mathematical modeling of motor vehicle traffic flow systems and transportation processes taking into account of the dimensional properties of the roads, vehicle types, driver characteristics and flow properties leads to ... -
Norms and Numerical Radii Inequalities of Derivations Induced by Orthogonal Projections
(JOOUST, 2022)Properties of derivations that have been studied by different mathematicians include norms, numerical ranges, spectra and positivity. However, norms and numerical radii inequalities of derivations induced by orthogonal ... -
Modeling of Credit Scoring Risks for Commercial Banks
(JOOUST, 2021)Credit Scoring is the use of decision models and their techniques that aid lenders in advancing consumer credit. These models assess credit worthiness of applicants for a loan by forecasting their probability of default ... -
Lie Symmetry Analysis of Nonlinear Fourth Order Evolution Equation
(JOOUST, 2020)Problems involving nonlinear partial differential equations arise in various fields of science for instance in propagation of shallow water waves, fluid physics. quantum mechanics. chemical kinematics and other related ... -
Corporate Governance, Strategic Choices, Resource Availability and Performance of Universities in Kenya
(JOOUST, 2020)corporate governance remains a key area of strategic management and continues to attract tremendous attention from the academia and practitioners. A plethora of studies have exam med the relationship between ... -
The Exponentially Modified Gaussian Function as a Tool for Deconvolution of Astroparticle Physics data.
(University of Siegen, 2016-03)An analysis of the mass composition of UHECRs based on the Xmax elongation rate (ER) within the energy range 1017.8−1020.0eV is performed, using Xmax data collected by the Pierre Auger Observatory from December 2004 to ... -
Synthesis, mosquito repellence and apoptotic activity of functionalized monoterpenes.
(2011-07)The investigations whose results are reported in this Thesis involved the synthesis of variously functionalized p-methane based epoxides, hydroxylated derivatives, β-amino alcohols, β-hydroxy sulphides and C-gycosidic ... -
Manipulative lowering of the water table during summer does not affect CO2 emissions and uptake in a minerotrophic fen
(BayCEER, 2009)We simulated the effect of prolonged summer drought by lowering the water table on three manipulation plots (D1-3) in a minerotrophic fen in South-eastern Germany in three subsequent years (2006-2008). Water table was ... -
Farmers willingness to pay and the sustainability of irrigated maize production in rural Kenya
(2017)This paper evaluated farmers willingness to pay for irrigated maize production using field level data collected through a cross sectional survey. The results showed that 78% of the farmers were willing to pay more than the ... -
Reconstruction of vegetation index and Phenology lab enhanced vegetation index record: An application of weak solution to stochastic partial differential equations approach
(JOOUST School of Mathematics & Actuarial Sciences, 2016-05)A long-term record of the Earth’s vegetation index record is important in studies of global climate change and feedbacks. Over the last three decades, many satellite based sensor platforms have generated multiple vegetation ...
